Couldn't find a sub topic for Central Terminal, Buffalo - feel free to move if I missed it.
Central Terminal - Buffalo:
MAK over at Rfalcon reporting that a possible territory takeover may be in progress there. Diamante was found injured and is in care now, no word on Gleig but reports suggest another pair may be attempting a takeover.
Details at Rfalcon.
Edit to add - Sage over at Peregrine Place has more details. Poor little guy, so glad he was found.
From Sage:
So sorry to have to share this. Gleig's beautiful mate Diamante' is the injured Peregrine who is being treated now at the Wildlife Division of the SPCA of Erie County.
He had surgery for the puncture wound to his neck. He also has a broken wing and other injuries. I will post updates as they are available.
His severe injuries lead us to think It was a fight for the nest site. I will go check the site tomorrow to see if Gleig is onsite or gone.
Some history: Gleig and Diamante' took over the site from Stash and Stella and Stella was found dead on the roof the next spring. This is life as a Peregrine Falcon.
I checked this site last Thursday and found Gleig on the perch and Diamante' on the ledge under the perch. It seemed they were having a conversation. Friday she was on her perch and Diamante' was near the top of the tower on a lookout point. I wonder iff he knew there was another Peregrine nearby.
Mariah and Kaver's son.. I hope that Gleig is OK.
